Sumie Sakai joins Spark Joshi's Ignite West 2023
Spark Joshi announces the addition of Sumie Sakai to the inaugural west coast show, Ignite West 2023, at the East San Gabriel Valley Japanese Community Center on June 16th.
With a background in Judo, Sakai trained under AJW star Jaguar Yokota who had come out of retirement two years earlier to form her own promotion, Jd' (JDStar.) After making her debut in Jd', Sakai moved to the United States while returning to Japan on multiple occasions as a freelancer. In early 2023, she announced her retirement later in the year, and Spark Joshi's first west coast event will now be part of her road to retirement.
See her live at Ignite West 2023, starting 11am on June 16th. Tickets on sale Friday May 5th at 4pm Pacific Time. Free paper streamers for front row ringside tickets.
